Through Art to Healing, the charity she founded, Atira and her team have supported thousands of Asian sex-trafficked survivors and their communities in the quest for freedom from slavery, trauma and oppression.

She is the pioneer of the Trauma-Informed Plant Medicine Facilitator Training, and the Somatic Plant Medicine Integration Program.
Atira has played a key role in developing and implementing psychedelic-assisted facilitator training programs.
